JAMES M. rONI.1 OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY ' Studer's Columbus and the Weekly Ohio State Journal, One Year for Two Dollars and Fifty Cents ! Ah Urbana correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette urges Judge William H. West as a candidele for Congress in the Eighth District. The Assocated Press dispatches contain an intimation oft a combination the realization of which would be joyful to our newspaper neighbors who have been flying Hayes end Woodford at their editorial heads these months. If Ingersoll's speech does not nominate Blaine, then speech-making is not to be counted on for much in a Presiden tial contest. The political noise in Cincinnati last night, however, no doubt went far to dissipate the effects of bril iiant oratory. Yesterday's session of the National Convention was fruitful of eloquent speeches in behalf of the candidates for President. The Convention got ready for a ballot anil then postponed it till this morning at ten o'clock. Our dispatches give all that need be said as to the influ. ence of the proceedings on Presiden tia candidates. In brief, Blaine's interests seem to be on the decline, rather than on the rise, and the Hayes men are represented to be more sanguine than ever. Much depends upon Pennsylvania, but that State is not con idered as friendly to Blaine as it was twentyfour hours ago. Ex-Senator DooLiTTLE.of Wisconsin, has done something. He has published a letter from General Ewing, of Ohio, which the New York World says is de signed to argue to an amicable under etanding on the financial question. But to meet him the World says General Ewing "must acknowledge the limit of $400,000,000 set by Congress to the issue of legal tenders or war money; must confess that our normal condition is that of a community with a double standard, gold and silver, and no paper money ti.at is not redeemable in coin ; and must acqui esce in the gradual retirement of war money until that normal condition is reached." A FIVE-POUND DWARF. A ttemarhable I.litle Mexican Twelve lean Old and Twenty Inches Hlifh. Mew Orleans Republican. One of the moHt remarkable human beings ever seen in this country, or perhaps in any other, arrived in this city last week, and is stopping at the St. Charles Hotel, with her parents, direct from Mexico and unknown to the American public. The child, Lucia Zarat?, was born at Vera 'Cruz, and is said to be twelve years old. She is twenty inches high and is said to weigh scarcely more than five pounds. Imagine a French doll walking and talking to you, and some idea of her appearance can be had. Standing on a parlor loor her head reaches about to the seat of an ordiuary chair, and yet her limbs and body are in all respects well proportioned. Mrs. Belknap could get no more than one toe of her foot into the Mexican girl's shoe. Her head, about as big as a man's list, is well shaped and covered with soft, brown hair. The only thing out of line with her size is her nose. That was evidently made for a larger girl, but il will do. She has bright, black eyes, and is intelligent, conversing with a little voice in the language of her parents. She runs and plays about the room as if she enjoyed her little life, and salutes and bids adieu to her guests with evident propriety. In the way of a joke she offered to carry a fat reporter on her back, and stooping over, asked him to climb np on her shoulders. The little midget will astonish any one who sees her, because she is so tiny and so human. Standing by the side of Tom Thumb she would reach his elbow, and the General would look like an overgrown and bloated aristocrat.

The Convention has been eauallv wise and fortunate in devoting one day to prelim inary skirmishing and sky rocket eloquence. Such has been its wtirk to-day. First we had the platform discussions. and next the dazzling sunbursts of oratory in behalf of the different candidates for nomination. This consumed the whole day, and now the Convention will be ready to-morrow to devote itself deliberately to selecting can- idates, with vastly less danger than hith erto that floods of feeling will swamp its judgment. THE FRIENDS OF BLAINE could have nominated him Monday or Tuesday, but they were much stronger than they are to-night, and more hopeful. To-day's proceedings have been in the main unfavorable to them, and whatever may be the results of to-morrow's ballot- ting, there is no doubt that their fortunes are at this moment declining. Before noon to-day they were anxious for an early vote, and Hale's motion that nominations precede the plat form had that object in view. It became apparent that the motion would be heavily voted down, and Hale withdrew it, thus avoiding a signal reverse at the outset. The admission of the ANTI-SPENCER Alabama delegation was not a test question and the vote does not indicate Blaine's Btrength, since fifty to one hundred delegates voted for admission who are not his partisans. But the reception given to his nomination by Ingersoll was a SPLENDID TRIUMPH, A finer ovation was probably never paid to any public man in a Convention. The cheering lasted several minutes at t time, and was repeated again and agai.n A candidate who can elicit such applause need not Borrow over defeat, if it comes to him. Evidently, however, much of it was EBULLITION OF SYMPATHY rather than force of conviction, and stimulated by a determination not to bo outdone by the friends of other candidates, ngergoll's speech was handsomely delivered and well adapted to excite enthusiasm. ' BKISTOW'S NAME also brought out tremendous applause, and especially from the galleries. Harlan, of Kentucky, made a very favorable impresBioniu moving JbiiB noxninELtiorj, but Dana, of Massachusetts, was not po fortunate in seconding it. His statement that Bristow was the only man who could carry Massachusetts, drew out violent hisses. Woodford's speech nominating Conkling was a masterpiece of finished eloquence. His forcible declaration that the Convention should nominate with the head, rather than the heart, made a deep impression. The name pf GOVERNOR HAYES was very warmly greeted in all parts of the immense hall. The speech of General Noyes in nominating Hayes, was very eloquent, and frequently elicited great applause. Wade followed in a speech, and the nomination was second ed by a gentleman al and Davis, C.f West In brief but effective Missouri Virginia, speech8- Woodford's speech for Conkling is r& gardtd as very favorable to Hayes. The Convention adjourned immediately alter the speeches presenting candidates, the Blain men making no opposition, This is generally understood as meaning that Blaine's frieuds were Bome-what demoralized by the enthusiasm for other candidates, and that they were pot sure of sufficient votes to nominate on the first ballot. This view is confirmed tonight by reports of various DEFECTIONS FROM BLAINE and the very generally increased disposition of bis opponents to combine on Hayes. The Ohio headquarters have been the center of excitement to-night, and very favorable reports have come in from all quarters, The adjournment has greatly mproved HayeB's chances, and bis friends have never been bo sanguine as tonight. Nevertheless Blaine is evidently still far ahead of any other candidate in votes, and it is not unlikely that PENNSYLVANIA will hold the power of nominating or defeating him. Many believe the vote of that State will be cast in his favor whenever it can nominate, but tne changes are not nearly so favorable for that as they were twentyfour hours ago. A nomination is generally expected to morrow, though there is a bare possibility that the day will be spent in fruitless balloting. List Night's Assooiated Press Dispatches BLAINE AND ALABAMA. Cincinnati, June 15. An erroneous impression seems to have prevailed to-day among some of the representatives of the press, as to the effect of the admission of the Haralson-Warner delegation from Alabama, on acoount of the large num. ber of Blaine's votes cast in favor of the majority report of the committee on Credentials. The result is declared by them to be a Blaine victory. This there is good reason to believe is contrary to the facts. While the anti-Spencer delegation have Btudiously refrained from giving - expression to their preferences, it is known that they represent the reform element in the Republican party of Alabama, and their votes can hardly go to Mr. Blaine except in a complimentary way. Indeed, it is known that the leading members of the delegation are friendly to Secretary Bristow. It was discovered to-night that some persons are engaged in preparations for tilling the balconies to-morrow with BLAINE CLAQUERS. The tickets are being distributed to men under their control and influence, and certain local politicians. The intention is to carry the Convention bv storm on the second ballot. Even to-day, dur ing the nominating speeches, some of these outside friends of Blaine delegati freelr voted on Questions decided hv viva voce vote, ft is likely that thev will not shrink from any efforts to-mor row mat shall innueuce the ballots. The rule adopted to-day to prevent any changes after the vote shall be taken may ueieat tnese plans. PROSPECTS OF BATES. Governor Noyes is more confident than at any other time during the progress of the Convention of the ultimate success of Governor Hayes. He claims that Hayes is tne only candidate beiore the Conven tion on whom the diverse interests can be concentrated. He haa assurances from other delegations that at the proper time their votes will be transferred to Ohio's candidate, and this. according to the figures in his possession, nominates Governor Hayes. He expects this result on the third billot. In the event of his nomination either William Wheeler or Lieutenant Governor Woodford, of New York, will be th nominee for Vice President. Xl.lVlh CougreNa First Sesnlon Washington, June 15, SBNATB. The Chair laid before the Senate a message from the Huuie announcing non-concurrence in the Senate amendments to the Legislat- T.,.i;..:.,l k .7-.; i.r, w u.ni.ai aim jj.ctutiti 41 p, upi IttllUU bill. The Senate insisted upon its amend ments, ana Messrs. tuorriiii ot Maine, Win, dom and Withers were appointed a confer ence committee. The Senate soon afterward adjourned, ousi. The bill providing that imported black mnrble my be bonded in open yards, under care of officer of customs, at the eipense of ins owner or importer, was passed. Messrs. Randall, Holmau and Foster were appointed a committee of conference on the Senate amendnieuis to the Legislative Ap propriation 0111. Mr. L-wrence eave notice that he would ask the House Tuesday next to vote on the bill to provide a sinking lund for the Pacific Railroad companies, and on the Geneva award bill Wednesday. Mr. Dunnell, from the committee on Commerce, reported a bdl authorizing the construction of a railroad bridge across the Wu- basti river, massed. Soon afterward the House went into committee of the VVh ile, Mr. Blackburn in the chair, on the Army appropriation bill, only general debate to be in order to-day, and regular action on the bill to commenceto-morrow. Dr. Bellows' Views of Mplrlliiali.ra, In the Unitarian Bsview for May thera is a singularly able, and, for its length, a singularly exhaustive, examination of the claims of spiritualism as it is taught and believed by its sincerest advocates to credence. The paper is from the pen ot Dr. Bellows, and is in form a review of Mr. Robert Dale Owen's "The Debatable Land." This summing up of the case, in which the essential difference is shown between the wonders of spiritualism and the miracles of the New Testament, is a particularly clear statement of a matter concerning which a good deal of confusion exists : "While there remain so many ways of accounting for these strange phenomena without calling m supernatural ntoti-ences, it seems equally unscientific and useless to introduce supernatural theories; above aP, it seems quite irrational and dangerous to build rivalries with or additions to Christianity upon them. I will not pretend to dispose of specific cases, or account for pirticular illusions. Who can meet all the ghost Btories in the world with any other than a general refusal to credit them unlil every other means of accounting for them has been exhausted except the supposition of their truth? General experience, common testimony, BCier-y philosophy, good sense, deny them. We are not under obligations to disprove them. The burden of proof is on the other side. Let one of them be established after thorough scientific scrutiny, and we wil lbegin to listen to the claims of the whole school of alleged spiritualistic phenomena. There is no hardship here. "TMb Is exactly the way the miracba of Christianity have been obliged to maintain their ground. There was no strong prepossession against them when they happened, for it was a marvel-loving and superstitious age. They were received wilhs!!' scientific examination, Butthey have been subjected since to the most intense and careful scrutiny. And if they continue, not unquestioned or undisputed, yet unshaken, it is because every method of accounting for Christ's work, and the immediate eflect he produced every way of accounting for the Christian record excepting the truth of their narratives- has been resorted lo in vain. There was an occasion worthy of a supernatural Intervention as the event has proved ; for a religion of incomparable purity and spirituality and duration has grown out of it. The miracles affirmed in the New Testament are, at least generally (I have known but one or two exceptions), not unworthy of a dignified -JI .lioin- i,..ii,.,A Tlibv nau nnl ia,.,.l ly done before any Belect audience, or wllh any chosen spectators, They never demanded darkness to cover them.' They were usually of a kind least of all liable to fraud like the feeding of live thousand men and women with five loaves and two fishes. They never, except in one instance the money in the fish's mouth have a nielodrsmstip aspect. The greatest of them were cures of disease; the deaf heard, the blind saw, the lame, leapt. In special cases they were, as in the case of the man born blind, very carefully scrutinized. The raising of Lazarus was a specially public miracle; and Christ himself, seen dying on the cross by hundreds, buried, and his tomb guarded, was seen after his resurrection by five hundred brethren, besides eating and drinking with his doubting apostles. But even these proofs would fail, if not supported by the character of Christ, and the nature of the Gospel narratives. We cannot get them out of the narralive without destroying its whole credibility, more than we can get the veins out of the marble without making a mass of unslacked lime of the slab. They are the birthmarks of the body of the Gospel, and cannot be washed, or Bcraped, or burnt out of its substance. They play an important office in the religion of Christ, and must be accepted sgainnt all our possessions, as the least incredible way of accounting for their appearance in the record and their part in the history of our faith. But they are alone and dislinct in their claims. No better lest of worthlessnessof church miracles, or of spiritualistic wonders, can be applied, than their incongruity with, and uulikeness to, the New Testament miracles. Christianity, laden with the trivial, undignified and inconsequent wonders which modern spiritualism is seeking to attach to it as wings of progress, would sink into swift contempt, and fall like Icarus, with his waxen pennons, before the power of the sun he aspired to reach." At the Democratic Congressional Convention of the Fourteenth district, E. B. Finley, of Crawford county, was nominated for Congress on the two hundredth ballot, J. B. Nelscbir, of Richland, and J. A. Estill, of Holmes, were appointed delegates' to the St, Louis Convention, and B. W. McKelly, of Wyandott district, elector.

Whi serving his country in the field he was called upon by the Senatorial Hi.. trict to serve that npnnla !n the Legislature, and there he was the acknowledged head of the Republicans of that period. In 1865, when the question was presented to Kentuckv in nffil form, whether she would ratify the Thirteenth Amendment to the Federal P.,nii- tution, abolishing slavery throughout this land, he with a small band of Republicans in the Senate voted in favor of its i.viub.uuii, Lneers.j rie Voleil in la- Amendment, which gave every man in this country the' rights of citizenship without regard to color.

In 1866, as United States District At torney in Kentucky, he performed siunal service in the prosecution of men charged with violations of the Ku-Klux and civil rights bills. Loud cheers. ' In 1871, standing upon the soil of his native State, addressing his fellow citizens of that State, when asked what he had to say in reference to the amendments to the Con. atitutiop, he pMd thisi language; "Neither uuise vousiuuiionai provisions, nor any statute passed .in relation to them, oppresses or harms a single human being. The civil riehts and Ku-Klnr acts aim solely at the lawless people who have no respect for law, and that Government that can not protect its humblest citizen from outrage and injury is unworthy fhe name, and' ought not to command the support ot the people." LCheers When asked upon the' same occasion what he had to say in relation to the education of the people, he responded : "f-the name of our high 1MJ oacre4 d'uty to see that the Commonwealth suffers nD injury, and that the beet interests of annlct., are pared for, let tia make free schools for an, ii 4. am asKea how It Is proposed to raise the mnnpv tn rlotVau !.. of such school., Ian;werbytn7--j.e property of the State. I would tax the rich man's proprly to educate his poor neighbor's child. I wopld tax the white man's property to educate the black man's child, and vice versa. In a word I would tax all the property of the State to educate all the children of the State." On the same occasion and in the same connection he was asked what be had to say in reference to the law which then excluded the colored men of Kentucky from the right of testifying. He replied : "The statute of Kentucky, which denies to 225,000 colored pjople of the Stale the right to testify in any case, civil or criminal, affecting a white person, has its origin in the supposed necessities of slavery, and is indefensible in a land of freedom. This denial is a monstrous and grievous wiong to both races. It is a practical denial of freedom to the colored race. Yea, it is even worse than that. It iB a license, if not an invitation to base miscreants and cowardly Ku-Klux to gratify their brutal passioiiB and sati. ale their murderous propsnsltles on this unoffending and defenseless race." But my countrymen, I am to he followed by a gentleman as second to this nomination, who will tell you more about General Bristow and in better language than I can do, and I will detain you no longer than I intended to do. I have, however, pride in referring to the record Bristow has made as Secretary of the Treasury of the United States. Cheers. He had not been at the head uf that Department thirty days before every employe in that Department, from one end of this land to the other, felt there was at hist a man at the head. Cheers. It is his proud record, and we of Kentucky are proud of it, that no man has been able to say Colonel Bristow, in the administration of the duties of that office, has favored his own party. He has shown no favoritism of any sort. His mode has been to execute law, and if the Republican party contained offenders who betrayed their trust, or who were thieves, he let them be punished, just as well' as anybody else. Now, I have said enough. My time is out. I beg leave to make a aingle suggestion. I do not have quite the ardent hopes some have in reference to the future of the Republican party of this country. We of the South feel that our destiny Is in your hands. We of the South feel that it is in your power to avert from this country that dreadest of all 1 political calamities, the return of the National Democratic party to power. We believe tbe man whom we present to you can combine with enthusiasm all the elements of opposition in this country to the Democratic party, and thereby secure not only honest government, but the perpetuation ol Republican principles, and therefore we express the earnest hope that this Convention will not adjourn its deliberatians till they have made him our leader in this contest, in the war for Republican principles against corruption and fraud. BRISTOW SECONDED. Judge Poland, of Vermont, seconded the nomination; referred to the fact that a larger portion of the people of his State belong to the Republican party than is the case in almost any other State. Vermont had no candidate of its own, but has a deep interest in tbe work of this Convention. J. he crista is an important one. The boast of the Democracy is that they go into the canvass with a united South in their favor. This is probably true, and so it needs only a comparatively small fragment of the Northern vote to remit the destinies of tbe country into the hands of those who sought to break up the Union. Vermont and Kentucky came into tbe Union together. He hoped they would stand together now for victory with Bristow. Applause. Mr. Curtis, of New York, next took the platform amid long and loud applause, on bebalf of that vast body of Republicans of New York who have seen Hcan party, because they have seen the mai reioriu is puoniu.e n.wjiu n ucpuu han any other could, at this time, em My the sentiment oi tne country in ibalf of such reiorm. me cunuition continued ascendancy of thtuarty is it it shall discharge its duties to tbe bole. fApplause.l He proceeded to eogize Bristow's record from the begin-nr of tbe rebellion, when he took his li in his hand, to the present time. In colusion, he said, if this is not to be the latsuccessful Convention of the Republic, party, it must go into the canvass wil these cries; First, absolute protcc-tioijf all rights of ciliiens everywhere; seccj, the hardest kind of money, and earUt return to it; third, no rings, no cliqui, no combinations, no personal goveiment applause; nothing but the will ( the people clearly expressed. Greaapplause, RICHARD H. DANA, of Maajchusetts, next came forward and was grtted with cheers. He said : Mr. hairman and Gentlemen of the Covention I am deeply grateful for my late and the delegation here, that we haveieen permitted and invited to second te nomination of Benjamin H. Bristow. Cheers. When that proposition Ms submitted to us, and by a vte not quite unanimous, but by n very large majority, I was authorizeoand requested to record tbe nominatio: of General Bristow great cheering, nd when this Iirge majority of the MagachusetlB delegation spoke those words they spoke the views of the old Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Gentlemen of the Republican Convention, I know no other name which is si sure to carry the old Commonwealh of Massachusetts at the next eletion hisses and cheers; Mark what I laid. I did not say no other man wodd, and I surely woujld not do it. Cheert and hisses. Now, gentlemen may make such oral demonstrations as are in aicordance with their habits and their nature, but Massachusetts has done something in time past for the Republican cause Has she not? Yes. Well, I olaim to credit. It was easy for us to be loyal, to be Republican, We rested on 70,000 naiority in our little Slate, but by one cause or another, by mismanagement, by the settling down of a great cloud over the administration, we almost lost the Stale of Massachusetts. But now, Mr. President, our hope re turns. Let me Bay to you, and I wish to sr?ak seriou.dy, and earnestly, o thin Convention not fpr applause, but instruotci lo present let me say, therefore, first, it is the belief of Massachusetts that the body politic is laboring under a severe and dangerous disease. It is our belief that it requires the administration of severe and unwelcome remedies. It is our belief that the d.i?.-"ca uiust be cured by the work of a strong hand, a strong will, a man of mighty courage, a man who, when he is President, will devote himself to the duty of being the President of the United States. Gentlemen, Massachusetts is satisfied with the loyalty of Eanjainin H. feriBtow. Vermont i satisfied with the loyalty of Benjamin H. Bristow. We know that he is from the other side of the line, but we know that his loyalty has been all the more tried for that cause. It has been tried in a furnace. Therefore, gentlemen, thanking you for the attention you ha?Q alt given me, and knowing tbe respect in which you hold the commonwealth that I partially represent, and in behalf of the large majority uf the delegation which has honored me bj ',uc. ing me at its head. 8econd the nomina-''Cf., with all my heart, of Benjamin , Bristow. demonstration for slaim". Upon the clos 0f Mr, Dana's speech, Colonel P-oert Ingersoll, of Illinois, np-penrcd upon the platform, and as it waB understood that he was to nominate Blaine the friends of the latter gentleman broke out into a storm of cheers, which was continued for several minutes, and closed with three oheers for the man from Maine, INGERSOLL NOMINATES BLAINE. When the tumult subsided Colonel Ingersoll spoke as follows -. Massachusetts may be satisfied with the loyalty of Benjamin H. Bristow. So am I. Applause. But if any man nominated by this Convention cannot carry the State of Massachusetts, I ura not satisfied with the loyally of that State. Cheers, applause and laughter. If the nominee of this Convention c.in-not carry the grand old Commonwealth of Massachusetts by 75,000 majority, I would advise them to sell out Fanuel Hall as a Democratic headquarters. Cheers and laughter, I would advise them to take from Bunker Hill that old monument of glory. The Republicans of the United Statss demand as their leader in the great contest of 1876 a man of intellect, a man of integrity oheers, a man of well known Bnd approved political opinions.

Great cheering. The man who haa in full habit and rounded measure all of these rplendid qualifications is the present grand and gallant leader of the Republican parly, James G. lilaiue. Cheers. Our country, crowned with the vast and marvelous achievements of its first century, asks for a man worthy of her past, prophetic of her future; asks for a man who has the audacity of genius applause; asks for a man who is the grandest combination of heart, conscience and brain beneath the flag. Applause. That man is "James G. Blaine." Applause.For the Republican host, led by this intrepid man, there can be no Buch thing as defeat. Applause This is a grand year; a year tilled with the recollection of the Revolution applause; filled with proud and tender memories of sacred past; filled with the legions of true liberty; a year in which the sons of freedom will drink from the fountain of enthusiasm applauBej a year in which the people call for a man who has preserved in Congress what our soldiers won upon the field cheers; a year in which we call for the man that haa torn from the throat of treason the tongue of Blander ap plause; a man that has snatched the mask .of Democracy from the hideous face of rebellion; a man who like an intellectual athlete stood in the arena of debate, challenged all commerce, and who up to the present moment, is a tolal stranger to defeat. Applause Like a plumed knight James G. Blaine inarched down the halls of the American Congress and threw his shining lance full and fair agaiuBt tbe brazeu forehead of every defamer of this country and maligncr of its honor. Loud cheers, and cries of "Time," and "Go on." The Chairman Is it the will of the Convention that tbe time of tbe speaker be extended ten minuteB? Cries of "yes." ; Colonel Ingersoll then proceeded i For the Republican party to desert tbat gallant man now is as though an army should desert their General upon the field of battle. Cheers; James G. Blaine IB now and has been for years the bearer of the sacred standard of the Republic. Cheers I call it sacred, because no human being can Btand beneath its folda without becoming, and without remaining free. Cheers Gentlemen of the Convention, in the' name of the Great Republic, the only Repqhlia that ever existed upon this earth; in tbe name of all her defenders, and of all her supporters; in the name of all her soldiers living; in the name of all her soldiers that died upon the field of battle, aqd in the name of those that perished in the skeleton clutch of famine at Anderaonville and Libhy oheers, whose Buffering he so eloquently remembers, Illinois nominates for the next President of this country, that prince of parliamentarians, that leader of leaders, James G, Blaine. Loud and repeated ahetrs blaine's nomination seconded. Mr. Turner, of Georgia, related that in his journey through the country he found Blaine's name was taltsmanio. He revered tbe name of Morton, the defender fieifeveJ ihTrtnf Tame" of'lifaln'l wVff arouse the people of this great country as that of Bristow will not. He had as deep respect for Brislow as the greSjt poet of New York who hp secondedThiin laughter! and Bi-eat respect for the distinguish ed gentleman from Massachusetts,our late Minister to Lngland, Laughter. He eulogized Blaine's record in eloquent, impassioned terms, but elicited strong tokens of dissent and displeasure vhep, he ul'ter-edasentenye to the effect'that the Republican party was bleeding and dead of Dem-ooratio vlotoriea before Blaine in the halls of CongresB came to the rescue. Mr. Frye, of Maine, followed in the support of the nomination of Maine's idol son. Whoever is nomipsied by this Convention, he ilt earry Maine by twenty thousand majority. He was eloquent and forcible in describing the great causes Involved in the pending contest, and decit;rtn its Invincibility for ito own sat.e under any chosen leader. CONKLING! PRESENTED;. When New Yox't was vailed. bD'"' Stewart L WtffPr8 ' MR,! Chats--- -u said : - -an, aud Gentlemen of --convention In obedience to ths injunction of our State Convention, with the thoughtful and absolute indorsement of our deliberate reflection and conviction, and with the earnest enthusiasm that his fidelity in friendship, his private worth and public service demand, New York presents for the Presidency of the Republic tbe honored name of Roscde Conkling, Cheers. Broad in culture, eloquent in debate, wise in counsel, fearless in leadership, and as true tot the old Republican party as the needle to the pole, Roscoe Conkling needs 'no idtfmee nerleulogy. He is a positivequintity in our politics. Cheers He, through the dark and trying hours when slander and misrepresentation hissed at the silent and brave man whom we have twic placed in the Presidential chair, was Ihe faithful and true friend of Ulysses 8. (j runt. Cheers In presenting hiB name, New York fully recognizes and loyally honors all the names that have been presented upon this piatiorm to-aay. jjo we torget our genial neighbor from Connecticut, his virtue, his intelligence, his economy, his energy in the administration of the postal service? When Indiana presented the name of her great war Governor applause our heariB went lovingly back to that dark hour when o ganized rebellion seized on the Legislature ol Indiana, and when Oliver P. Morton Blrangled the treason cheers and won as great a victory in the council aa our best and bravest soldiers in the field. Cheers. When Kentucky, birthplace of Abraham Lincoli. cheers, Kentucky, where Bleep the ashes of Henry Clay when Kentucky named the great Secretary she sought to name one to whom New York gives her heartiest honor. Cheers. You and I lemember how all the animosities of partisanship died when we heard that he was stricken, and the awful silence which fell upon us as we feared approaching death had settled over him. How in every heart there rose most loving prayers, from friend as well as opponent, when faithful friends and loving wife were weeping and praying by his side, that the God of life would spare James G. Blaine, and to-day, with the most loving of his friends, Nsw York congratulates him in the name of the nation that he is Btrong again in health, in name, in body. Loud cheers. But, gentlemen, pardon a few serious words. Let us not nominate with our hearts, but with our heads. Cheers This is no time for the Republican party to endanger all the interests committed to its care in a moment of emotional insanity. Cheers. Four years ago we gave to Grant and that grand old patriot John A. Dix, fifty thousand majority in the State of New York. Two years ago, and that same State gave fifty three majority to Samuel J. Tiiden. Only this last spring the State of Kentucky, right on the eve of the Presidential battle, gave 60,000 Democratic majority. Only the other day, as we were gathering for this Convention, the wires whispered across the continent that Oregon had gone Democratic. To-day Indiana has a Democratic Governor. To-day New Jersey has a Democratic Governor. To-day Kentucky has a Democratic Governor. To-day New York has a Democratic Governor. And unless you can secure the votes of Indiana, Ohio and New York, or failing the votes of all the rest, in spite of all our enthusiasm, in spite of all our love, we may follow the banter of our party to defeat. Cheers. I do not claim that Roscoe Cockling is the only Republican who can carry the State of New York. I believe that he can. If I did not so believe I would cut off that hand before I would stand in a republican Convention and plead for hie nomination, Cheers. Mark this, and it is in all seriousness, mere is in jMew lorn a vote tbat is neither Republican nor yet Democratic; a vote which acknowledges little allegiance to party; a vote that went for Dix in 1872; a vote mat went lor iiioen in la4, Uen-tlemen of the Convention, I pray you, in this hour, let all personal ambition, let all pride be put aside. Cheers. Remember, remember, what Democratic victory means. It means destruction of the National credit. It means madness in all legislation touching finances or the tariff. It means that all through tbe South white Republicans must put padlocks on their lives, while black Republicans will be bunted like the wolves before the hounds. Oh, gentlenmen of the Convention, not for Roscoe Conkling, not for New York, but for the ideas of the Republican party, for the cause that we followed, some of us through the black fields; in the name of those who have died; iu the name of the loyal men to whom we would give protection through all the land; in the name of all the interests of humanity that in this Centennial time are committed to the Republican party, I plead that you to-day give us a candidate with whom and under whom we can achieve, not personal ambition, but a victory that means honesty in finance, loyalty in government, and absolute protection to the lowliest and humblest under the flag of our fathers. Cheers PRESENTATION OF HAYES. General E. F. Noyes, of Ohio, spoke as follows : Gentlemen On behalf of the forty-four delegates from Ohio, representing the entire Republican party of Ohio, I have the honor to present to this Convention the name of a gentleman well known and favorably known throughout the country; one held in high respet and much beloved by the people of Ohio, a man who during the daik and stormy days of the rebellion; was in the forefront of battle, and followed bis leaders and his flag until the authority of our Government wasre-established from the lakes to the gulf, and from the river around to th,8 a man who has had thj rare good fortune since he war was over to be twice elected lo CongreBS from the district where he resided, and subsequently the rarer fortune of beating bucccosI vely for the highest office iq thagift of the people of Ohio, Allen G. Thurman, George H. Pendleton and William Allen. Prolonged cheers. He is a gentleman who has somehow lullen into the, habit af defeating aspirants for the Presidency, and we in Ohio all have a notion tbat from long experience he will be able to do it again, Cheers In present'ng the name of Governor Hayes, permit me to say we wage no war upon the distinguished gentlemen whose names have been meutojaed here to-day. Cheers. They have rendered great service to their country, which entitles them to our respect, and to our gratitude. Applause I have nq word to utter against them. 1 only wish to say that General Hayes is the peer of these gentlemen in integrity, in character, in ability. They appear an equals in all the great qualities which fit men for the bigh- cWlvem? Governor Hajcji li honest, Cheers, He ij hrae. " Cheers, He is unpretending. He is wise, sagacious, s scholar aud a gentleman. Applause. Enjoying an independent fortune, the simplicity Qf 1 his private life, his modesty of bearing, are a standing rebuke to b$ extravagance, the reckless extravagance which leads to corruption in publio and private places. ;Cheers. BEN WADE SPEAKS. The Chair Need I name Ben, Wade. Applause. Mr. Wade fter what has been said by ryj oolleague, there remains but very little for me to say. In fact, General Hayes needs no second to name him aa a nominee for President. Applause. He is well known in Ohio. He is well known by all the Republicans of Ohio, and respected by all te Democracy ot onio. l Applause, and Ian"-' Ha ill a, genHewaa aio" ' -e,iiier. pan b said ' " .wll0m nothing . .0 nis discredit, a man who ...a run without opposition, a man who will enter the field without the fear of any opposition whatever. We of Ohio know him well. He is not unknown in official life. He has occupied high and responsible official positions, not only in the State, hut in the nation, aud in the whole period of his official life he has acquitted himself to the entire satisfaction of those who placed him there applause, and two years ago, when the Republican fig seemed to be trailing, when the Republicans stood in the tear that their cause might temporarily be lost, he" was the man we put up to bear the standard of this great State in the face of the nation, when the eyes of the whole people were upon ub, looking at ub with the most intense anxiety. I need not tell you, in whatevr portion of the United States you may reside, that the result of his canvass cheered the hearts of Republicans in every part of this Union, and turned the tide of victory against Democracy. General Hayes has ever been a Bound Republican, never deviating from his course, when others have fallen, and always abetting the cause of Republicanism, spending his fortune and hia power and strength to promote its interests; an undeviating Republican, in whom there never was any mistrust. He stood by the Republican party in the blackest hour of our peril, he sloed by it in council and in peace, and he stood by our gunB in war, and we intend to stand by him as he Blood by us. Applause A SECOND FROM MISSOURI. The Chair introduced Mr. Gustayus W. James, of Missouri, who said : I raise my voice from the State of Missouri, in support of tbe name of Rutherford B. Hayes, of Ohio. While I would never Bay aught reflecting on tbe great and illustrious names that have been presented, yet I must say that in the present state and condition of tbe country, it is the duty of the Republican party aud this Convention, to reflect upon the selection of a Btandard bearer. I will say that in the nomination of R. B. Hayes, of Ohio, a response will be heard from not only the great valley of the Ohio, but the Btill greater valley of the Mississippi, that has not been heard for many contests, since the Republican party was organized, The man that has been known ae the citizen soldier, and afterward so honored by the great State of Ohio, and thrice to have defeated tt e Democratic party, will assuredly fulfill all the expectations of the Republican parly with regard to a Presidential candidate. When the State of Ohio rested under the cloud of defeat he was the only man to rescue it, Cheers. Give us R. B. Hayes, and gentlemen of the Convention, there will be a response of the whole element of the Republican party and a consecration of the disaffected elements, which I believe no other man can consecrate on the tieketB. Cheers. You would hear no more of Liberal Republicans, or of reformers. It would be a general rising of the Republican party upon its feet, and it would be the moat triumphant victory since the days of the illustrious and immortal Lincoln. Give us R. B. Hayes, the champion of honest money and popular education, and a shout will be raised through the land that no other candidate can causa. Give us R. B. Hayes as the candidate of the Republican party, and there is no suoh thing as defeat. J. W. DAVIS, OF WEST VIBaiKlA was then introduced and spoke as follows: MR. PbeSIDEBT AND Olnn isrv I heartily second the nomination of the gentlemen who have preceded me. The character of Governor Hayes is irre-proached and irreproachable. As a soldier, he inspired enthusiasm among his followers and respect among his foes. He has filled the highest offices of tbs State, military, legislative, and executive, State and National, and on every occasion he na oeen louna equal to the situation wnicn ne nnea. lApplause. His devotion to tbe principles of civil liberty is such that his election would be a guaranty of the freedom of every citizen of the United States. His hand would hold hrmly the reins of government. Nominate bim hers to-dav and ha will surelv be elected. Elect him and you have a rresulent that every American citizen, at home or abroad, will be proud to call him President. Applause Without saying anything against anybody else, I feel sure tbat the nomination of Rutherford B. Hayes is an assured fact. His election is just as certsinas that the sun is to rise to-morrow morning. Nominate him and he will be the President of tbe United States. Cheers. The Secretary then proceeded with the call of States, and when he reached Penn sylvania, the HATH AN FT MEN Bent up a cheer that shook the building. Linn Bartholomew, as the representative of Pennsylvania, took the platform and was greetea witn cheers. Mr. Bartholc mew said : Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Convention : The manifest enxiety that pervades this assembly to depart shall hasten me to a conclusion. I know well that the gentleman whose name I propose to this Convention, should he direct me, would ask and request that so far an his merits are concerned they should be expressed with exceeding great modesty, for that is his character. Applause. I say here, as others have said before me, that I concede to the gentlemen named a great intellectual superiority over even my candidate. I do no claim for General John F. Har'jinh of Pennsylvania cheers, t(;8t he p0IWeBBes great intellectual;' Dut j d0 claia) for him tht he knows enough to know that he don't know everything laughter and cheers, and is willing to follow good, sound, wholesome advice. And when an individual gets that far upon the road be possesses decided merit, at least to my mind. rfAppiause.l I can Bay this, gentlemen, in bebalf of jonn r. nartranlt, that his patriotism cannot be questioned, tbat he is a Republican, and his adherence to Republican principles cannot be questioned. His Republicanism was taught under rebel fire. Before the echo of the first gun that fired on Sumter had died away, John F. Hart-rauft was in the service of his country, and he remained at the front, doing battle for his country, until material treason failed at Appomatox. Applause. His civil life has been a successful one. He has been the Executive, re-elected in the State of Pennsylvania. Hia character is tbat of a Christian gentleman. He possesses the requisites of an executive officer, and let me say here to you that he haa a patriotism as large as our land. It will cover every inch of territory in our land, and in the Commonwealth his name is a synonym of honesty. Cheers. You have pronounced in this Convention, over and over again, that Pennsylvania is not a certain State, ead let ms say to the delegates he:s that no Bingle man oh our ao.U has done more to make hers juonaunced Republican State than Gen. John F. Hartranlt. Hissdminisjj-a- "-r" - en, TOnf, no charge of corruption was ever uttered successfully against his acts. Economy is his rftla-that good economy not that false economy that would send ou.r representatives to foreign courts in nankeen pants and straw hat hut. u,ni good, wise economy of administration of government ma- is ths evidence of statesmanship; and I say here, without detaining you further, that he is with us, one of our chosen leaders; nay our chosen leader. This nomination on the part of the Pennsylvania delegation was unsought by him. He never sought it. It was thruBt on bim, not at his Beeking, hut the seeking of the Republican party of Pennsylvania cheers, and we aBk of you here o take his claim Into due con.erati; because we know t'. ae is worthy. He wart t a nothJ-- , . -i wants Both'1 Mil-' . "K lu i"ul",l u .ioJe and successful candidate of the Republican party. Cheers. ADJOURNMENT. Mr. Cumback moved to adjourn to 10 a. m., to-morrow. Loud cries of "No, no," "Yes, yen." A vote by States was demanded and ordered. Tbe roll call had proceeded to Arkan-sns only, when it being announced that the hall could not be Hunted, the Conven tion, at the HuggeBlion of Mr. Frye, of Maine, by general consent, agreea to aa journ until 10 a. m. to-morrow. Dark Ways if Ihe Loniluu N in nil Boy M. D. Conway's letter to Ihe Cincinnati Commercial says: The other day a rustic individual came to London by train to witness the reception of the Prince of Wales. A man who bad come in the same third-class carriage with him ad' monished this rustic, when they were parting just outside the London station, that he should be very careful of his money, as many thieves would be in the crowd. Oh, said the rustic, "nobody II get my money, I have only one pound, and I nit1 an to keen that in my mouth." This remark was overheard by one of our small but clever street boyB. who watched his opportunity, and when the honest countryman cot a few hundred yards on his way, suddenly scattered a few pennies on the ground beiore him, and began to pick them up again, crying to the rustic as he did so, "You gimme that flovrin 1" The rustic looked bewildered. "You gimme that sovrin," shouted the small boy. "I seen you pick it up and put it in your mouth." A crowd began to collect, and asked the boy what was the matter. "Why," cried the littlerogue, "I was agoin' 'long with one pun sixpence in my hand, carryin it to mother, 'n somebody run agin me an' knocked it all on the ground, 'n this man, he took up the sovrin' an' I seen 'itn put it in 'is mouth." The astounded rustic attempted to explain, but his voice was thick; something plainly was in his mouth, and an honest British public forced him to disgorge. The poor rustic was glad to get oft' without his pound and with whole bones; the boy went off with the gold in his pocket, and the honest British public distributed itself, each member thereof satisfied that a scoundrel had been defeated in his attempt to rob a small boy engaged in filially mipporting hid aged mother, A lrCMritt Expedient. An amusing incident occurred Sntur-dwy on board the Bonton and New York express train, while hallini; at SpriDgtield, which is worthy of record. Alnnst jm-mediately after tin- train ntuned, a very small and almost voiceleps nf wHhny'oter-ed one of the cars, nnd walking buck and forth from end to end of the enrriage, murmured something about the Hpring-field Union, a single copy of which he carried under one arm, and would doubtless have been glad to sell. The boy's idiotic apathy and consequent ill success in trade attracted the attention of a nervous looking gentleman among the New York passengers, who, after observing things for a few moments, jumped from his seat and cried out, "See here, boy; let me show you how to sell newspapers !" Snatching the paper from under tbe urchin's arm, and placing it beneath his own, he commenced pacing slowly the length of the car, shouting loudly enough to be heard several blocks away : "8p--r-r-ing-g-g -fieldUuionl Dou- ble sheet! Terrible fire in Philadel- phia-a-at Suicide of Bam Sowlee aod Arlea Chancis Fradams I The CenteDnial buildings in ashes I Dom Pedro and f re h idem Orrant reduced to cinders I Four links of linen hone bunted I Rpr-r-r-r-r " and his further exclamations were lost amid the uproarious merriment of other paswengerB and the yells of the little news peddler, who had found bis voice and was tagning at the gentleman's coat-taila in Tain endeavor to recover his papers, as the train was by this time moving from the station.

JAMES M. rONI.1 OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY ' Studer's Columbus and the Weekly Ohio State Journal, One Year for Two Dollars and Fifty Cents ! Ah Urbana correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette urges Judge William H. West as a candidele for Congress in the Eighth District. The Assocated Press dispatches contain an intimation oft a combination the realization of which would be joyful to our newspaper neighbors who have been flying Hayes end Woodford at their editorial heads these months. If Ingersoll's speech does not nominate Blaine, then speech-making is not to be counted on for much in a Presiden tial contest. The political noise in Cincinnati last night, however, no doubt went far to dissipate the effects of bril iiant oratory. Yesterday's session of the National Convention was fruitful of eloquent speeches in behalf of the candidates for President. The Convention got ready for a ballot anil then postponed it till this morning at ten o'clock. Our dispatches give all that need be said as to the influ. ence of the proceedings on Presiden tia candidates. In brief, Blaine's interests seem to be on the decline, rather than on the rise, and the Hayes men are represented to be more sanguine than ever. Much depends upon Pennsylvania, but that State is not con idered as friendly to Blaine as it was twentyfour hours ago. Ex-Senator DooLiTTLE.of Wisconsin, has done something. He has published a letter from General Ewing, of Ohio, which the New York World says is de signed to argue to an amicable under etanding on the financial question. But to meet him the World says General Ewing "must acknowledge the limit of $400,000,000 set by Congress to the issue of legal tenders or war money; must confess that our normal condition is that of a community with a double standard, gold and silver, and no paper money ti.at is not redeemable in coin ; and must acqui esce in the gradual retirement of war money until that normal condition is reached." A FIVE-POUND DWARF. A ttemarhable I.litle Mexican Twelve lean Old and Twenty Inches Hlifh. Mew Orleans Republican. One of the moHt remarkable human beings ever seen in this country, or perhaps in any other, arrived in this city last week, and is stopping at the St. Charles Hotel, with her parents, direct from Mexico and unknown to the American public. The child, Lucia Zarat?, was born at Vera 'Cruz, and is said to be twelve years old. She is twenty inches high and is said to weigh scarcely more than five pounds. Imagine a French doll walking and talking to you, and some idea of her appearance can be had. Standing on a parlor loor her head reaches about to the seat of an ordiuary chair, and yet her limbs and body are in all respects well proportioned. Mrs. Belknap could get no more than one toe of her foot into the Mexican girl's shoe. Her head, about as big as a man's list, is well shaped and covered with soft, brown hair. The only thing out of line with her size is her nose. That was evidently made for a larger girl, but il will do. She has bright, black eyes, and is intelligent, conversing with a little voice in the language of her parents. She runs and plays about the room as if she enjoyed her little life, and salutes and bids adieu to her guests with evident propriety. In the way of a joke she offered to carry a fat reporter on her back, and stooping over, asked him to climb np on her shoulders.

The Convention has been eauallv wise and fortunate in devoting one day to prelim inary skirmishing and sky rocket eloquence. Such has been its wtirk to-day. First we had the platform discussions. and next the dazzling sunbursts of oratory in behalf of the different candidates for nomination. This consumed the whole day, and now the Convention will be ready to-morrow to devote itself deliberately to selecting can- idates, with vastly less danger than hith erto that floods of feeling will swamp its judgment. THE FRIENDS OF BLAINE could have nominated him Monday or Tuesday, but they were much stronger than they are to-night, and more hopeful. To-day's proceedings have been in the main unfavorable to them, and whatever may be the results of to-morrow's ballot- ting, there is no doubt that their fortunes are at this moment declining. Before noon to-day they were anxious for an early vote, and Hale's motion that nominations precede the plat form had that object in view. It became apparent that the motion would be heavily voted down, and Hale withdrew it, thus avoiding a signal reverse at the outset. The admission of the ANTI-SPENCER Alabama delegation was not a test question and the vote does not indicate Blaine's Btrength, since fifty to one hundred delegates voted for admission who are not his partisans. But the reception given to his nomination by Ingersoll was a SPLENDID TRIUMPH, A finer ovation was probably never paid to any public man in a Convention. The cheering lasted several minutes at t time, and was repeated again and agai.n A candidate who can elicit such applause need not Borrow over defeat, if it comes to him. Evidently, however, much of it was EBULLITION OF SYMPATHY rather than force of conviction, and stimulated by a determination not to bo outdone by the friends of other candidates, ngergoll's speech was handsomely delivered and well adapted to excite enthusiasm. ' BKISTOW'S NAME also brought out tremendous applause, and especially from the galleries. Harlan, of Kentucky, made a very favorable impresBioniu moving JbiiB noxninELtiorj, but Dana, of Massachusetts, was not po fortunate in seconding it. His statement that Bristow was the only man who could carry Massachusetts, drew out violent hisses. Woodford's speech nominating Conkling was a masterpiece of finished eloquence. His forcible declaration that the Convention should nominate with the head, rather than the heart, made a deep impression. The name pf GOVERNOR HAYES was very warmly greeted in all parts of the immense hall. The speech of General Noyes in nominating Hayes, was very eloquent, and frequently elicited great applause. Wade followed in a speech, and the nomination was second ed by a gentleman al and Davis, C.f West In brief but effective Missouri Virginia, speech8- Woodford's speech for Conkling is r& gardtd as very favorable to Hayes. The Convention adjourned immediately alter the speeches presenting candidates, the Blain men making no opposition, This is generally understood as meaning that Blaine's frieuds were Bome-what demoralized by the enthusiasm for other candidates, and that they were pot sure of sufficient votes to nominate on the first ballot. This view is confirmed tonight by reports of various DEFECTIONS FROM BLAINE and the very generally increased disposition of bis opponents to combine on Hayes. The Ohio headquarters have been the center of excitement to-night, and very favorable reports have come in from all quarters, The adjournment has greatly mproved HayeB's chances, and bis friends have never been bo sanguine as tonight. Nevertheless Blaine is evidently still far ahead of any other candidate in votes, and it is not unlikely that PENNSYLVANIA will hold the power of nominating or defeating him. Many believe the vote of that State will be cast in his favor whenever it can nominate, but tne changes are not nearly so favorable for that as they were twentyfour hours ago. A nomination is generally expected to morrow, though there is a bare possibility that the day will be spent in fruitless balloting. List Night's Assooiated Press Dispatches BLAINE AND ALABAMA. Cincinnati, June 15. An erroneous impression seems to have prevailed to-day among some of the representatives of the press, as to the effect of the admission of the Haralson-Warner delegation from Alabama, on acoount of the large num. ber of Blaine's votes cast in favor of the majority report of the committee on Credentials. The result is declared by them to be a Blaine victory. This there is good reason to believe is contrary to the facts. While the anti-Spencer delegation have Btudiously refrained from giving - expression to their preferences, it is known that they represent the reform element in the Republican party of Alabama, and their votes can hardly go to Mr. Blaine except in a complimentary way. Indeed, it is known that the leading members of the delegation are friendly to Secretary Bristow. It was discovered to-night that some persons are engaged in preparations for tilling the balconies to-morrow with BLAINE CLAQUERS. The tickets are being distributed to men under their control and influence, and certain local politicians. The intention is to carry the Convention bv storm on the second ballot. Even to-day, dur ing the nominating speeches, some of these outside friends of Blaine delegati freelr voted on Questions decided hv viva voce vote, ft is likely that thev will not shrink from any efforts to-mor row mat shall innueuce the ballots. The rule adopted to-day to prevent any changes after the vote shall be taken may ueieat tnese plans. PROSPECTS OF BATES. Governor Noyes is more confident than at any other time during the progress of the Convention of the ultimate success of Governor Hayes. He claims that Hayes is tne only candidate beiore the Conven tion on whom the diverse interests can be concentrated. He haa assurances from other delegations that at the proper time their votes will be transferred to Ohio's candidate, and this. according to the figures in his possession, nominates Governor Hayes. He expects this result on the third billot. In the event of his nomination either William Wheeler or Lieutenant Governor Woodford, of New York, will be th nominee for Vice President.

The bill providing that imported black mnrble my be bonded in open yards, under care of officer of customs, at the eipense of ins owner or importer, was passed. Messrs.

Dr. Bellows' Views of Mplrlliiali.ra, In the Unitarian Bsview for May thera is a singularly able, and, for its length, a singularly exhaustive, examination of the claims of spiritualism as it is taught and believed by its sincerest advocates to credence. The paper is from the pen ot Dr. Bellows, and is in form a review of Mr. Robert Dale Owen's "The Debatable Land." This summing up of the case, in which the essential difference is shown between the wonders of spiritualism and the miracles of the New Testament, is a particularly clear statement of a matter concerning which a good deal of confusion exists : "While there remain so many ways of accounting for these strange phenomena without calling m supernatural ntoti-ences, it seems equally unscientific and useless to introduce supernatural theories; above aP, it seems quite irrational and dangerous to build rivalries with or additions to Christianity upon them. I will not pretend to dispose of specific cases, or account for pirticular illusions. Who can meet all the ghost Btories in the world with any other than a general refusal to credit them unlil every other means of accounting for them has been exhausted except the supposition of their truth? General experience, common testimony, BCier-y philosophy, good sense, deny them. We are not under obligations to disprove them. The burden of proof is on the other side. Let one of them be established after thorough scientific scrutiny, and we wil lbegin to listen to the claims of the whole school of alleged spiritualistic phenomena. There is no hardship here. "TMb Is exactly the way the miracba of Christianity have been obliged to maintain their ground. There was no strong prepossession against them when they happened, for it was a marvel-loving and superstitious age. They were received wilhs!!' scientific examination, Butthey have been subjected since to the most intense and careful scrutiny. And if they continue, not unquestioned or undisputed, yet unshaken, it is because every method of accounting for Christ's work, and the immediate eflect he produced every way of accounting for the Christian record excepting the truth of their narratives- has been resorted lo in vain. There was an occasion worthy of a supernatural Intervention as the event has proved ; for a religion of incomparable purity and spirituality and duration has grown out of it. The miracles affirmed in the New Testament are, at least generally (I have known but one or two exceptions), not unworthy of a dignified -JI .lioin- i,..ii,.,A Tlibv nau nnl ia,.,.l ly done before any Belect audience, or wllh any chosen spectators, They never demanded darkness to cover them.' They were usually of a kind least of all liable to fraud like the feeding of live thousand men and women with five loaves and two fishes. They never, except in one instance the money in the fish's mouth have a nielodrsmstip aspect. The greatest of them were cures of disease; the deaf heard, the blind saw, the lame, leapt. In special cases they were, as in the case of the man born blind, very carefully scrutinized. The raising of Lazarus was a specially public miracle; and Christ himself, seen dying on the cross by hundreds, buried, and his tomb guarded, was seen after his resurrection by five hundred brethren, besides eating and drinking with his doubting apostles. But even these proofs would fail, if not supported by the character of Christ, and the nature of the Gospel narratives. We cannot get them out of the narralive without destroying its whole credibility, more than we can get the veins out of the marble without making a mass of unslacked lime of the slab. They are the birthmarks of the body of the Gospel, and cannot be washed, or Bcraped, or burnt out of its substance. They play an important office in the religion of Christ, and must be accepted sgainnt all our possessions, as the least incredible way of accounting for their appearance in the record and their part in the history of our faith. But they are alone and dislinct in their claims. No better lest of worthlessnessof church miracles, or of spiritualistic wonders, can be applied, than their incongruity with, and uulikeness to, the New Testament miracles. Christianity, laden with the trivial, undignified and inconsequent wonders which modern spiritualism is seeking to attach to it as wings of progress, would sink into swift contempt, and fall like Icarus, with his waxen pennons, before the power of the sun he aspired to reach." At the Democratic Congressional Convention of the Fourteenth district, E. B. Finley, of Crawford county, was nominated for Congress on the two hundredth ballot, J. B. Nelscbir, of Richland, and J. A.

Mr. Pinchback. of Louisiana HcnnmL ed Morton's nomination, in the name of the truly loyal people of his State. Great applause in the galleries.

Whi serving his country in the field he was called upon by the Senatorial Hi.. trict to serve that npnnla !n the Legislature, and there he was the acknowledged head of the Republicans of that period. In 1865, when the question was presented to Kentuckv in nffil form, whether she would ratify the Thirteenth Amendment to the Federal P.,nii- tution, abolishing slavery throughout this land, he with a small band of Republicans in the Senate voted in favor of its i.viub.uuii, Lneers.j rie Voleil in la- Amendment, which gave every man in this country the' rights of citizenship without regard to color.

In 1866, as United States District At torney in Kentucky, he performed siunal service in the prosecution of men charged with violations of the Ku-Klux and civil rights bills. Loud cheers. ' In 1871, standing upon the soil of his native State, addressing his fellow citizens of that State, when asked what he had to say in reference to the amendments to the Con. atitutiop, he pMd thisi language; "Neither uuise vousiuuiionai provisions, nor any statute passed .in relation to them, oppresses or harms a single human being. The civil riehts and Ku-Klnr acts aim solely at the lawless people who have no respect for law, and that Government that can not protect its humblest citizen from outrage and injury is unworthy fhe name, and' ought not to command the support ot the people." LCheers When asked upon the' same occasion what he had to say in relation to the education of the people, he responded : "f-the name of our high 1MJ oacre4 d'uty to see that the Commonwealth suffers nD injury, and that the beet interests of annlct., are pared for, let tia make free schools for an, ii 4. am asKea how It Is proposed to raise the mnnpv tn rlotVau !.. of such school., Ian;werbytn7--j.e property of the State.

In a word I would tax all the property of the State to educate all the children of the State." On the same occasion and in the same connection he was asked what be had to say in reference to the law which then excluded the colored men of Kentucky from the right of testifying. He replied : "The statute of Kentucky, which denies to 225,000 colored pjople of the Stale the right to testify in any case, civil or criminal, affecting a white person, has its origin in the supposed necessities of slavery, and is indefensible in a land of freedom. This denial is a monstrous and grievous wiong to both races. It is a practical denial of freedom to the colored race. Yea, it is even worse than that. It iB a license, if not an invitation to base miscreants and cowardly Ku-Klux to gratify their brutal passioiiB and sati. ale their murderous propsnsltles on this unoffending and defenseless race." But my countrymen, I am to he followed by a gentleman as second to this nomination, who will tell you more about General Bristow and in better language than I can do, and I will detain you no longer than I intended to do. I have, however, pride in referring to the record Bristow has made as Secretary of the Treasury of the United States. Cheers. He had not been at the head uf that Department thirty days before every employe in that Department, from one end of this land to the other, felt there was at hist a man at the head. Cheers. It is his proud record, and we of Kentucky are proud of it, that no man has been able to say Colonel Bristow, in the administration of the duties of that office, has favored his own party. He has shown no favoritism of any sort. His mode has been to execute law, and if the Republican party contained offenders who betrayed their trust, or who were thieves, he let them be punished, just as well' as anybody else. Now, I have said enough. My time is out. I beg leave to make a aingle suggestion. I do not have quite the ardent hopes some have in reference to the future of the Republican party of this country. We of the South feel that our destiny Is in your hands. We of the South feel that it is in your power to avert from this country that dreadest of all 1 political calamities, the return of the National Democratic party to power. We believe tbe man whom we present to you can combine with enthusiasm all the elements of opposition in this country to the Democratic party, and thereby secure not only honest government, but the perpetuation ol Republican principles, and therefore we express the earnest hope that this Convention will not adjourn its deliberatians till they have made him our leader in this contest, in the war for Republican principles against corruption and fraud. BRISTOW SECONDED. Judge Poland, of Vermont, seconded the nomination; referred to the fact that a larger portion of the people of his State belong to the Republican party than is the case in almost any other State. Vermont had no candidate of its own, but has a deep interest in tbe work of this Convention. J. he crista is an important one. The boast of the Democracy is that they go into the canvass with a united South in their favor. This is probably true, and so it needs only a comparatively small fragment of the Northern vote to remit the destinies of tbe country into the hands of those who sought to break up the Union. Vermont and Kentucky came into tbe Union together. He hoped they would stand together now for victory with Bristow. Applause. Mr. Curtis, of New York, next took the platform amid long and loud applause, on bebalf of that vast body of Republicans of New York who have seen Hcan party, because they have seen the mai reioriu is puoniu.e n.wjiu n ucpuu han any other could, at this time, em My the sentiment oi tne country in ibalf of such reiorm. me cunuition continued ascendancy of thtuarty is it it shall discharge its duties to tbe bole. fApplause.l He proceeded to eogize Bristow's record from the begin-nr of tbe rebellion, when he took his li in his hand, to the present time. In colusion, he said, if this is not to be the latsuccessful Convention of the Republic, party, it must go into the canvass wil these cries; First, absolute protcc-tioijf all rights of ciliiens everywhere; seccj, the hardest kind of money, and earUt return to it; third, no rings, no cliqui, no combinations, no personal goveiment applause; nothing but the will ( the people clearly expressed. Greaapplause, RICHARD H. DANA, of Maajchusetts, next came forward and was grtted with cheers. He said : Mr. hairman and Gentlemen of the Covention I am deeply grateful for my late and the delegation here, that we haveieen permitted and invited to second te nomination of Benjamin H. Bristow. Cheers. When that proposition Ms submitted to us, and by a vte not quite unanimous, but by n very large majority, I was authorizeoand requested to record tbe nominatio: of General Bristow great cheering, nd when this Iirge majority of the MagachusetlB delegation spoke those words they spoke the views of the old Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Gentlemen of the Republican Convention, I know no other name which is si sure to carry the old Commonwealh of Massachusetts at the next eletion hisses and cheers; Mark what I laid. I did not say no other man wodd, and I surely woujld not do it. Cheert and hisses. Now, gentlemen may make such oral demonstrations as are in aicordance with their habits and their nature, but Massachusetts has done something in time past for the Republican cause Has she not? Yes. Well, I olaim to credit. It was easy for us to be loyal, to be Republican, We rested on 70,000 naiority in our little Slate, but by one cause or another, by mismanagement, by the settling down of a great cloud over the administration, we almost lost the Stale of Massachusetts. But now, Mr. President, our hope re turns. Let me Bay to you, and I wish to sr?ak seriou.dy, and earnestly, o thin Convention not fpr applause, but instruotci lo present let me say, therefore, first, it is the belief of Massachusetts that the body politic is laboring under a severe and dangerous disease. It is our belief that it requires the administration of severe and unwelcome remedies. It is our belief that the d.i?.-"ca uiust be cured by the work of a strong hand, a strong will, a man of mighty courage, a man who, when he is President, will devote himself to the duty of being the President of the United States. Gentlemen, Massachusetts is satisfied with the loyalty of Eanjainin H. feriBtow. Vermont i satisfied with the loyalty of Benjamin H. Bristow. We know that he is from the other side of the line, but we know that his loyalty has been all the more tried for that cause. It has been tried in a furnace. Therefore, gentlemen, thanking you for the attention you ha?Q alt given me, and knowing tbe respect in which you hold the commonwealth that I partially represent, and in behalf of the large majority uf the delegation which has honored me bj ',uc. ing me at its head. 8econd the nomina-''Cf., with all my heart, of Benjamin , Bristow. demonstration for slaim". Upon the clos 0f Mr, Dana's speech, Colonel P-oert Ingersoll, of Illinois, np-penrcd upon the platform, and as it waB understood that he was to nominate Blaine the friends of the latter gentleman broke out into a storm of cheers, which was continued for several minutes, and closed with three oheers for the man from Maine, INGERSOLL NOMINATES BLAINE. When the tumult subsided Colonel Ingersoll spoke as follows -. Massachusetts may be satisfied with the loyalty of Benjamin H. Bristow. So am I. Applause. But if any man nominated by this Convention cannot carry the State of Massachusetts, I ura not satisfied with the loyally of that State. Cheers, applause and laughter. If the nominee of this Convention c.in-not carry the grand old Commonwealth of Massachusetts by 75,000 majority, I would advise them to sell out Fanuel Hall as a Democratic headquarters. Cheers and laughter, I would advise them to take from Bunker Hill that old monument of glory.

Cheers In presenting hiB name, New York fully recognizes and loyally honors all the names that have been presented upon this piatiorm to-aay. jjo we torget our genial neighbor from Connecticut, his virtue, his intelligence, his economy, his energy in the administration of the postal service? When Indiana presented the name of her great war Governor applause our heariB went lovingly back to that dark hour when o ganized rebellion seized on the Legislature ol Indiana, and when Oliver P. Morton Blrangled the treason cheers and won as great a victory in the council aa our best and bravest soldiers in the field. Cheers. When Kentucky, birthplace of Abraham Lincoli. cheers, Kentucky, where Bleep the ashes of Henry Clay when Kentucky named the great Secretary she sought to name one to whom New York gives her heartiest honor. Cheers. You and I lemember how all the animosities of partisanship died when we heard that he was stricken, and the awful silence which fell upon us as we feared approaching death had settled over him. How in every heart there rose most loving prayers, from friend as well as opponent, when faithful friends and loving wife were weeping and praying by his side, that the God of life would spare James G. Blaine, and to-day, with the most loving of his friends, Nsw York congratulates him in the name of the nation that he is Btrong again in health, in name, in body. Loud cheers. But, gentlemen, pardon a few serious words. Let us not nominate with our hearts, but with our heads. Cheers This is no time for the Republican party to endanger all the interests committed to its care in a moment of emotional insanity. Cheers. Four years ago we gave to Grant and that grand old patriot John A. Dix, fifty thousand majority in the State of New York. Two years ago, and that same State gave fifty three majority to Samuel J. Tiiden. Only this last spring the State of Kentucky, right on the eve of the Presidential battle, gave 60,000 Democratic majority. Only the other day, as we were gathering for this Convention, the wires whispered across the continent that Oregon had gone Democratic. To-day Indiana has a Democratic Governor. To-day New Jersey has a Democratic Governor. To-day Kentucky has a Democratic Governor. To-day New York has a Democratic Governor. And unless you can secure the votes of Indiana, Ohio and New York, or failing the votes of all the rest, in spite of all our enthusiasm, in spite of all our love, we may follow the banter of our party to defeat. Cheers. I do not claim that Roscoe Cockling is the only Republican who can carry the State of New York. I believe that he can. If I did not so believe I would cut off that hand before I would stand in a republican Convention and plead for hie nomination, Cheers. Mark this, and it is in all seriousness, mere is in jMew lorn a vote tbat is neither Republican nor yet Democratic; a vote which acknowledges little allegiance to party; a vote that went for Dix in 1872; a vote mat went lor iiioen in la4, Uen-tlemen of the Convention, I pray you, in this hour, let all personal ambition, let all pride be put aside. Cheers. Remember, remember, what Democratic victory means. It means destruction of the National credit. It means madness in all legislation touching finances or the tariff. It means that all through tbe South white Republicans must put padlocks on their lives, while black Republicans will be bunted like the wolves before the hounds. Oh, gentlenmen of the Convention, not for Roscoe Conkling, not for New York, but for the ideas of the Republican party, for the cause that we followed, some of us through the black fields; in the name of those who have died; iu the name of the loyal men to whom we would give protection through all the land; in the name of all the interests of humanity that in this Centennial time are committed to the Republican party, I plead that you to-day give us a candidate with whom and under whom we can achieve, not personal ambition, but a victory that means honesty in finance, loyalty in government, and absolute protection to the lowliest and humblest under the flag of our fathers. Cheers PRESENTATION OF HAYES. General E. F. Noyes, of Ohio, spoke as follows : Gentlemen On behalf of the forty-four delegates from Ohio, representing the entire Republican party of Ohio, I have the honor to present to this Convention the name of a gentleman well known and favorably known throughout the country; one held in high respet and much beloved by the people of Ohio, a man who during the daik and stormy days of the rebellion; was in the forefront of battle, and followed bis leaders and his flag until the authority of our Government wasre-established from the lakes to the gulf, and from the river around to th,8 a man who has had thj rare good fortune since he war was over to be twice elected lo CongreBS from the district where he resided, and subsequently the rarer fortune of beating bucccosI vely for the highest office iq thagift of the people of Ohio, Allen G. Thurman, George H. Pendleton and William Allen. Prolonged cheers. He is a gentleman who has somehow lullen into the, habit af defeating aspirants for the Presidency, and we in Ohio all have a notion tbat from long experience he will be able to do it again, Cheers In present'ng the name of Governor Hayes, permit me to say we wage no war upon the distinguished gentlemen whose names have been meutojaed here to-day. Cheers. They have rendered great service to their country, which entitles them to our respect, and to our gratitude. Applause I have nq word to utter against them. 1 only wish to say that General Hayes is the peer of these gentlemen in integrity, in character, in ability. They appear an equals in all the great qualities which fit men for the bigh- cWlvem? Governor Hajcji li honest, Cheers, He ij hrae. " Cheers, He is unpretending. He is wise, sagacious, s scholar aud a gentleman. Applause. Enjoying an independent fortune, the simplicity Qf 1 his private life, his modesty of bearing, are a standing rebuke to b$ extravagance, the reckless extravagance which leads to corruption in publio and private places. ;Cheers. BEN WADE SPEAKS. The Chair Need I name Ben, Wade. Applause. Mr. Wade fter what has been said by ryj oolleague, there remains but very little for me to say. In fact, General Hayes needs no second to name him aa a nominee for President. Applause. He is well known in Ohio. He is well known by all the Republicans of Ohio, and respected by all te Democracy ot onio. l Applause, and Ian"-' Ha ill a, genHewaa aio" ' -e,iiier. pan b said ' " .wll0m nothing . .0 nis discredit, a man who ...a run without opposition, a man who will enter the field without the fear of any opposition whatever. We of Ohio know him well. He is not unknown in official life. He has occupied high and responsible official positions, not only in the State, hut in the nation, aud in the whole period of his official life he has acquitted himself to the entire satisfaction of those who placed him there applause, and two years ago, when the Republican fig seemed to be trailing, when the Republicans stood in the tear that their cause might temporarily be lost, he" was the man we put up to bear the standard of this great State in the face of the nation, when the eyes of the whole people were upon ub, looking at ub with the most intense anxiety. I need not tell you, in whatevr portion of the United States you may reside, that the result of his canvass cheered the hearts of Republicans in every part of this Union, and turned the tide of victory against Democracy. General Hayes has ever been a Bound Republican, never deviating from his course, when others have fallen, and always abetting the cause of Republicanism, spending his fortune and hia power and strength to promote its interests; an undeviating Republican, in whom there never was any mistrust. He stood by the Republican party in the blackest hour of our peril, he sloed by it in council and in peace, and he stood by our gunB in war, and we intend to stand by him as he Blood by us. Applause A SECOND FROM MISSOURI. The Chair introduced Mr. Gustayus W. James, of Missouri, who said : I raise my voice from the State of Missouri, in support of tbe name of Rutherford B. Hayes, of Ohio. While I would never Bay aught reflecting on tbe great and illustrious names that have been presented, yet I must say that in the present state and condition of tbe country, it is the duty of the Republican party aud this Convention, to reflect upon the selection of a Btandard bearer. I will say that in the nomination of R. B. Hayes, of Ohio, a response will be heard from not only the great valley of the Ohio, but the Btill greater valley of the Mississippi, that has not been heard for many contests, since the Republican party was organized, The man that has been known ae the citizen soldier, and afterward so honored by the great State of Ohio, and thrice to have defeated tt e Democratic party, will assuredly fulfill all the expectations of the Republican parly with regard to a Presidential candidate. When the State of Ohio rested under the cloud of defeat he was the only man to rescue it, Cheers. Give us R. B. Hayes, and gentlemen of the Convention, there will be a response of the whole element of the Republican party and a consecration of the disaffected elements, which I believe no other man can consecrate on the tieketB. Cheers. You would hear no more of Liberal Republicans, or of reformers. It would be a general rising of the Republican party upon its feet, and it would be the moat triumphant victory since the days of the illustrious and immortal Lincoln. Give us R. B. Hayes, the champion of honest money and popular education, and a shout will be raised through the land that no other candidate can causa. Give us R. B. Hayes as the candidate of the Republican party, and there is no suoh thing as defeat. J. W. DAVIS, OF WEST VIBaiKlA was then introduced and spoke as follows: MR. PbeSIDEBT AND Olnn isrv I heartily second the nomination of the gentlemen who have preceded me. The character of Governor Hayes is irre-proached and irreproachable. As a soldier, he inspired enthusiasm among his followers and respect among his foes. He has filled the highest offices of tbs State, military, legislative, and executive, State and National, and on every occasion he na oeen louna equal to the situation wnicn ne nnea. lApplause. His devotion to tbe principles of civil liberty is such that his election would be a guaranty of the freedom of every citizen of the United States. His hand would hold hrmly the reins of government. Nominate bim hers to-dav and ha will surelv be elected. Elect him and you have a rresulent that every American citizen, at home or abroad, will be proud to call him President. Applause Without saying anything against anybody else, I feel sure tbat the nomination of Rutherford B. Hayes is an assured fact. His election is just as certsinas that the sun is to rise to-morrow morning. Nominate him and he will be the President of tbe United States. Cheers. The Secretary then proceeded with the call of States, and when he reached Penn sylvania, the HATH AN FT MEN Bent up a cheer that shook the building. Linn Bartholomew, as the representative of Pennsylvania, took the platform and was greetea witn cheers. Mr. Bartholc mew said : Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Convention : The manifest enxiety that pervades this assembly to depart shall hasten me to a conclusion. I know well that the gentleman whose name I propose to this Convention, should he direct me, would ask and request that so far an his merits are concerned they should be expressed with exceeding great modesty, for that is his character. Applause. I say here, as others have said before me, that I concede to the gentlemen named a great intellectual superiority over even my candidate. I do no claim for General John F. Har'jinh of Pennsylvania cheers, t(;8t he p0IWeBBes great intellectual;' Dut j d0 claia) for him tht he knows enough to know that he don't know everything laughter and cheers, and is willing to follow good, sound, wholesome advice. And when an individual gets that far upon the road be possesses decided merit, at least to my mind. rfAppiause.l I can Bay this, gentlemen, in bebalf of jonn r. nartranlt, that his patriotism cannot be questioned, tbat he is a Republican, and his adherence to Republican principles cannot be questioned. His Republicanism was taught under rebel fire. Before the echo of the first gun that fired on Sumter had died away, John F. Hart-rauft was in the service of his country, and he remained at the front, doing battle for his country, until material treason failed at Appomatox. Applause. His civil life has been a successful one. He has been the Executive, re-elected in the State of Pennsylvania. Hia character is tbat of a Christian gentleman. He possesses the requisites of an executive officer, and let me say here to you that he haa a patriotism as large as our land. It will cover every inch of territory in our land, and in the Commonwealth his name is a synonym of honesty. Cheers. You have pronounced in this Convention, over and over again, that Pennsylvania is not a certain State, ead let ms say to the delegates he:s that no Bingle man oh our ao.U has done more to make hers juonaunced Republican State than Gen. John F. Hartranlt. Hissdminisjj-a- "-r" - en, TOnf, no charge of corruption was ever uttered successfully against his acts. Economy is his rftla-that good economy not that false economy that would send ou.r representatives to foreign courts in nankeen pants and straw hat hut. u,ni good, wise economy of administration of government ma- is ths evidence of statesmanship; and I say here, without detaining you further, that he is with us, one of our chosen leaders; nay our chosen leader. This nomination on the part of the Pennsylvania delegation was unsought by him. He never sought it. It was thruBt on bim, not at his Beeking, hut the seeking of the Republican party of Pennsylvania cheers, and we aBk of you here o take his claim Into due con.erati; because we know t'. ae is worthy. He wart t a nothJ-- , . -i wants Both'1 Mil-' . "K lu i"ul",l u .ioJe and successful candidate of the Republican party. Cheers. ADJOURNMENT. Mr. Cumback moved to adjourn to 10 a. m., to-morrow. Loud cries of "No, no," "Yes, yen." A vote by States was demanded and ordered. Tbe roll call had proceeded to Arkan-sns only, when it being announced that the hall could not be Hunted, the Conven tion, at the HuggeBlion of Mr. Frye, of Maine, by general consent, agreea to aa journ until 10 a. m. to-morrow. Dark Ways if Ihe Loniluu N in nil Boy M. D. Conway's letter to Ihe Cincinnati Commercial says: The other day a rustic individual came to London by train to witness the reception of the Prince of Wales. A man who bad come in the same third-class carriage with him ad' monished this rustic, when they were parting just outside the London station, that he should be very careful of his money, as many thieves would be in the crowd. Oh, said the rustic, "nobody II get my money, I have only one pound, and I nit1 an to keen that in my mouth." This remark was overheard by one of our small but clever street boyB. who watched his opportunity, and when the honest countryman cot a few hundred yards on his way, suddenly scattered a few pennies on the ground beiore him, and began to pick them up again, crying to the rustic as he did so, "You gimme that flovrin 1" The rustic looked bewildered. "You gimme that sovrin," shouted the small boy. "I seen you pick it up and put it in your mouth." A crowd began to collect, and asked the boy what was the matter. "Why," cried the littlerogue, "I was agoin' 'long with one pun sixpence in my hand, carryin it to mother, 'n somebody run agin me an' knocked it all on the ground, 'n this man, he took up the sovrin' an' I seen 'itn put it in 'is mouth." The astounded rustic attempted to explain, but his voice was thick; something plainly was in his mouth, and an honest British public forced him to disgorge. The poor rustic was glad to get oft' without his pound and with whole bones; the boy went off with the gold in his pocket, and the honest British public distributed itself, each member thereof satisfied that a scoundrel had been defeated in his attempt to rob a small boy engaged in filially mipporting hid aged mother, A lrCMritt Expedient. An amusing incident occurred Sntur-dwy on board the Bonton and New York express train, while hallini; at SpriDgtield, which is worthy of record. Alnnst jm-mediately after tin- train ntuned, a very small and almost voiceleps nf wHhny'oter-ed one of the cars, nnd walking buck and forth from end to end of the enrriage, murmured something about the Hpring-field Union, a single copy of which he carried under one arm, and would doubtless have been glad to sell. The boy's idiotic apathy and consequent ill success in trade attracted the attention of a nervous looking gentleman among the New York passengers, who, after observing things for a few moments, jumped from his seat and cried out, "See here, boy; let me show you how to sell newspapers !" Snatching the paper from under tbe urchin's arm, and placing it beneath his own, he commenced pacing slowly the length of the car, shouting loudly enough to be heard several blocks away : "8p--r-r-ing-g-g -fieldUuionl Dou- ble sheet! Terrible fire in Philadel- phia-a-at Suicide of Bam Sowlee aod Arlea Chancis Fradams I The CenteDnial buildings in ashes I Dom Pedro and f re h idem Orrant reduced to cinders I Four links of linen hone bunted I Rpr-r-r-r-r " and his further exclamations were lost amid the uproarious merriment of other paswengerB and the yells of the little news peddler, who had found bis voice and was tagning at the gentleman's coat-taila in Tain endeavor to recover his papers, as the train was by this time moving from the station.
